详细说明

Indian Territory. Fort Sill. Undated (1861-1865) Rice & Byers. 50 Cents. Schenkman IT-FS-50B (NL-U50B), W-NC-120-050b. Rarity-9. Brass. Reeded Edge--Counterstamped--EF-40 (NGC). 19 mm. An unusual piece, the revere has been boldly and deeply counterstamped with a 1 over the digit 5, seemingly to change the denomination from 50 cents to 10 cents. The effects of the counterstamp are seen on the obverse in the form of a smooth area that is devoid of detail. Otherwise we note bold definition throughout, and the 5 in the original denomination is still discernible. Originally toned surfaces with microscopic roughness, yet no significant marks apart from the counterstamp. A rare type. Provenance: From the Rockford Collection - Part 3.
